The Lucianic Text of 1 Samuel : A Revised and Augmented Edition of the Old Greek

In the historical books, the Lucianic or Antiochene text is easily definable, as far as the manuscripts are concerned: the five manuscripts 19-82-93-108-127 (= L) form a family that is clearly distinguishable from all other textual lines. The connection of this textual form to Antioch is confirmed by quotations in the writings of Antiochene Fathers. In this paper, I wish to describe the textual character of the Lucianic text in 1 Samuel, the kinds of recensional readings found in it, its dependence on Hexaplaric sources, as well as its relation to the Old Greek.Peer reviewe

Hexaplaric Recension and Hexaplaric Readings in 1 Samuel

There are many things about the origins of the Hexaplaric recension that remain in darkness. However, going through the Greek manuscript evidence for a book like, for instance, 1 Samuel, it is easy to see the repercussions of the activities of Origen and his followers. Hexaplaric readings are not confined to one manuscript group but are distributed into different manuscript, and the Aristarchian signs are seldom preserved, but the nature of these readings is revealed by comparison with the Hebrew text. In addition to the Hexaplaric recension based on the fifth column of the Hexapla there are also other readings that are of Hexaplaric origin but not part of the Hexaplaric recension as well as earlier Hebraizing readings that coincide with readings in the Hexapla. The paper aims at clarifying the differences between the different roles of the Hexapla in the textual history of the Septuagint.Peer reviewe
